PDCMonday, 17 April 2023 at 11:00
Leader Dirk van Duijvenbode has moved a little further ahead of his pursuers on the Players Championship Order of Merit. Thanks to three titles in ten tournaments, 'Aubergenius' is comfortably in the lead.
On Sunday evening, Van Duijvenbode captured his third ranking title of the season. In the final of Players Championship 10, the Dutchman was 8-3 too strong for Jose de Sousa. After ten Players Championship tournaments, the tally already stands at £49,000 for Van Duijvenbode.
Krzysztof Ratajski moves up to third on £30,000 after sealing his maiden title of the season and after reaching back-to-back finals losing to Gary Anderson during Event Eight who sits fourth.
After all Players Championship tournaments, the best 64 players compete in the Players Championship Finals. This tournament will be played in Minehead from 24 to 26 November.
